Портрет жінки 1910

"Portrait of a Woman" is a 1910 painting by Ukrainian artist Mykhailo Boychuk, known for his revival of Byzantine art techniques. The painting, currently housed in the Lviv National Art Gallery, depicts a woman with a somber expression, her features rendered in a simplified, almost icon-like style. The use of earthy tones and the flatness of the composition recall the traditions of Ukrainian folk art and religious iconography, reflecting Boychuk's commitment to a distinctly national style. The painting showcases the artist's distinctive approach, which blended historical influences with modern sensibilities.
